Game developers, big and small, are already using the Megacool SDK in their games.
Gameplay recordings
The Megacool SDK supports different types of gameplay recordings. This way you can tailor your recordings to fit your game perfectly!
-
Time recording
Time recording is best suited for fast pace games, like action or racing games. Just choose when you would like the recording to begin and end, and it will capture the whole session.
-
Frame-by-frame recording
Frame-by-frame recording is best when it’s the player’s moves that are of importance, as in board games, coloring books, and word games — games that typically move at a slower pace.
-
Highlight recording
Highlight recording tracks game intensity and analyzes gameplay changes as they unfold to find the most intense game playing sequences and create more share-worthy moments for players and their friends.
-
Timelapse recording
Timelapse recording is great when you want to show how a long game session progresses over time.
-
Screenshot sharing
With screenshot sharing you can let your players show off their new high score, achievements or their awesome game characters to their friends!
Referrals and deep linking
Wouldn’t it be nice to let your players easily share your game and onboard their friends with only a few simple taps? With Megacool you can do just that!
-
Rewarded referrals
Did you know that 1/3 of Uber's users were acquired through referrals? With Megacool you can easily implement your own referral program for your game and reward players with in-game currency. Incentivize them to share and download it. Sometimes people need a small push to get started and then they'll love it.

Seamless linking
Imagine pressing a link and you're instantly taken to a match with your friend. Megacool provides customizable links that players can share. You can add metadata to the link like a friend invite, open a specific level or join a match. And guess what, it works for both new installs and existing users. This is achieved by using Universal Linking and deep linking to give the best user experience.
Simple integration
The fastest way to record game play. No recording buttons. No cables. You choose when to record the GIF. Just add a few lines of code and players can easily share their personal game moments and invite their friends to play.
void Play () {... Megacool.Instance.StartRecording();...}void Collision () {... Megacool.Instance.StopRecording();...}void ShareButtonPressed () {... Megacool.Instance.Share();...}
